I know that multi-start threads have a greater lead than single-start threads of equal pitch length, but are there any other differences in function? Is there any difference in strength between a single-start and a two-start thread with the same pitch?
Thank-you
Again, thank-you for you post, but I am looking for much more detail. The handbook gives a general description of the different forms, but I want to know things like:
-What are the advantages of using a tapered thread as opposed to a parrellel thread?
-What are the pros/cons of multi-start...
Thanks, for the suggestion. I have the 26th edition of the Machinery's Handbook and yes, it does show some of the thread forms and give some calculations, but I am looking for something more in-depth concerning why the different forms are used. I need to know what the benefits of different...
Does anyone know of a good reference source for designing threads. I would like detailed information on why different thread forms are used, what the benefits of different types are, and calculations involoved in choosing a proper thread form.
I am currently looking at different variations...
